Do you think Your Email Proofs are Legally Valid?
Esupports recommeds rpost.com as a registered mail service in electronic email system. As email has evolved into a serious business tool. It has come under intense scrutiny in today’s legal landscape, resulting in some regulatory safeguards for certain industries. New U.S. federal e-discovery rules went into effect on December 1, 2006, making it critical for companies and professionals to protect themselves and enhance accountability for their important outbound email. In addition, landmark cases such as Lorraine v Markel (May 2007) have brought the issue of admissibility of email evidence into light and prompted courts to define a set of stringent new standards for email evidence.
RPost’s Registered Email® service is an important safeguard against legal liability associated with e-discovery and email message disputes. Unlike the common ‘read receipt’, it protects you and your organization with legally verifiable proof that your email was delivered, with an official time stamp, and legally verifiable proof of the content sent and received, including attachments. The proof is in the form of a Registered Receipt™ email which contains a digital snapshot of the entire email transaction and can be self-authenticated at any time should an aspect of your original message be called into question.

Parallels Summit 2010 - "Profit from the Cloud" - Excerpt from CEO Serguei Beloussov Keynotes
Much easy to guess, this edition is mainly focussed on cloud computing, pretty much like everywhere else in the Industry. The much awaited Parallels summit 2010 was held on lovely Fontainebleau in Miami Beach on Feb 22-24. Parallels CEO Serguei Beloussov outlined the company’s vision for the Cloud, from his keynotes, Parallels will be more concentrating on small to medium business (SMB) which predicted will grow to nearly $19 billion by 2013.
“Considerable growth is predicted in Cloud services for small businesses as they provide a low cost, easy solution for these organizations, who need an increasing range of IT services, but have very little IT knowledge and limited budgets,” said Beloussov.
In his keynotes, Parallels admitting that VMware ESX is the best hypervisor on the market, but “except for its price” comparing to Parallels virtualization tools. Secondarily, he indirectly admitted that Parallels competitor in virtualizing the hosting industry is not VMware, but vendors that offer Xen-based platforms. And this is because Amazon, with its Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) which is based on Xen, is leading by example.
He also announced Parallels hired Amir Sharif, former VMware ESX Product Manager, as new Vice President of Virtualization.
Sharif will certainly provide impressive intelligence to Parallels about VMware and how his former company led and controlled the whole virtualization industry so far.
